| Device,equipment |
This study will have participants implement self-management at home using a combination therapy that includes the use of PLD. PLD is a medical device that has been approved in Japan and is already in use in clinical settings. The following device will be used: Name: Sequential Air-Pressure Lymph Flow Promotion Device (PLD) Limiti (Technokatsura Co., Ltd.) Medical Device Approval Number: 30600BZX00129000 (Attached documentation will be submitted separately as an appendix) The PLD implementation protocol will be conducted as outlined below. Frequency: Once daily Duration: 30 minutes Intensity and compression direction: Optimal intensity determined by the physician prior to intervention Period: 2 weeks (outpatient visits must be scheduled within the range from 2 weeks after the start of intervention to 4 weeks after, with treatment continued until the day before the outpatient visit)
